StationRipper records streaming internet radio (like SHOUTcast radio) as MP3s, then saves the song with the correct band and artist info.

The new version will download album art for you - saving the art with the MP3.

You can get information about the song you're playing, and buy the CD from Amazon. You can also look at what others are recording - and start recording other stations with a single click.

StationRipper also offers more feature-filled versions for a price, but the free version has a lot to offer on its own. You probably won't end up with the highest quality MP3s on the block with this method, but you will certainly have the opportunity to try out a lot of new music.
